The present studies examined experimental transplant outcomes using mobilized peripheral blood from mice and humans together with FoxP3+Treg cells. Donor mice were treated with filgrastim and / or plerixafor and their peripheral blood (PB) displayed significant elevations in hematopoietic stem and progenitor populations. Some of these PB donors were concurrently administered a Treg expansion strategy consisting of a TL1A-Ig fusion protein low dose rIL-2. A significant increase (4-5x) in the frequency Tregs occurred during mobilization. C3H.SW PB was collected from mobilized and Treg unexpanded (TrUM) or mobilized and Treg expanded (TrEM) donors and transplanted into MHC-matched B6 (H2b) recipients. Recipients of TrEM, exhibited significantly reduced weight loss and clinical GVHD scores compared to recipients of TrUM. Notably, recipients of TrEM exhibited comparable GVL activity to TrUM recipients against leukemia levels. Next, huTregs (CD4+CD25+CD127lo) from a healthy human PB mobilized donor were expanded ex-vivo prior to transplant into NSG/ NOD-scid IL2Rgammanull mice. We found that treatment with ex-vivo expanded huTregs resulted in significant reduction of lethality and clinical xGVHD scores. Notably, post-transplant, PB huTregs levels remained elevated and the frequency of huCD4+Tconv and CD8+ cells was diminished supporting the improved xGVHD outcomes. These findings demonstrated that the use of mPB containing elevated Treg levels significantly reduced GVHD following MUD and MHC-mismatched mouse HSCT without loss of GVL activity. Moreover, utilizing ex-vivo expanded huTregs from a mobilized PB donor and added back to donor PB ameliorated xGVHD. In total, these studies support the notion that in vivo or ex-vivo manipulation of donor Tregs together with mobilized peripheral blood could provide therapeutic approaches to improve aHSCT outcomes.
